Hi All,
It was raining the other day. The first thought that came into my mind was the dish that I used to make before marriage. It was one of the first things that I made and still remains my favorite of all time. It was always the mom who used to cook and I used to treat cooking as a hobby like most young girls did. I used to make this dish along with potato fries whenever I had the "mood" to cook which was rare by the way. So, today when I made this dish again it reminded me of those days. Here it is......
VEGGIE CUTLETS
INGREDIENTS
VEGETABLES LIKE POTATO, PEAS, CARROTS AND CAULIFLOWER
MARIE BISCUITS: 1 FULL PACK
CLOVES, CINNAMON STICKS AND BAY LEAVES: 4-5, 2 AND 1 RESPECTIVELY
GARAM MASALA: 1 TSP
RED CHILLI POWDER: 1/2 TSP
SALT AS REQUIRED
OIL FOR FRYING
MAKING
Take a Kadai with a Tbsp of oil. Add the Cloves, Bay leaves, and Cinnamon sticks. Stir for a couple of minutes before adding the above-mentioned vegetables. Stir again for 5 minutes before adding the Red chilly powder, Garam Masala and salt as required. Pour a cup of water, close the lid, and allow it to cook until the vegetables are soft and boiled thoroughly. Switch off the gas and allow it to cool for a little while. Make sure the veggie gravy is warm. Now, for the final step, grind the Marie biscuits into a coarse powder and add it to the mixture and make small flat balls with them and keep them aside.
Take a flat pan and pour oil in it just enough to coat the entire pan (just a layer). Fry the cutlet balls so that the outer layer is brown and fried. Delicious Veggie Cutlets is ready. Serve them hot with Tomato sauce.
TIPS: Always make sure the amount of powdered Marie Biscuits is more than the vegetable mix. for eg, if you have 1 cup of vegetable gravy, add at least 1 and a half cup of powdered Marie Biscuits. Also, the veggie mix has to be warm so that you can hold them and make it into balls. If you want, you can also deep fry the cutlets or for the health-conscious like me, just make it in the above-mentioned way.
